One of the best and worst things about the Internet is the way it scatters and disappears like a small town college every weekend. I won’t document my escapades on the weekends when I had Cooper to myself. Instead, knowing that nobody will read this, I’ll talk about boogers. Nose stuff doesn’t bother me. It […]
